monitor plugin not auto updating

Post by dogs1005 »

hi there,
has anyone else noticed that monitor plugin does not auto update.
The 'Last Refresh' time stays on the time when you first opened the monitor tab.

Has anyone got a fix for this because as it stands it is of no use at all as we have a big TV in our office displaying all our monitored devices and if it doesn't auto refresh we won't know if any devices fail or not.

I have seen a couple of posts about this here but no real answers.
My refresh rate in settings is set to 1 minute.
I have disabled and uninstalled and re-installed and enabled again, same issue.

Hope someone will be able to help.

EDIT:
If anyone is interested, I have found a fix for this and involves editing the monitor.php file in the plugin directory.
You need to add <?php header('Refresh: 10'); ?> to the beginning of the file, with the number being the number of seconds between refreshes, so mine now looks like:

<?php header('Refresh: 60'); ?>
<?php


Hope this will help others with this issue.
